Yesterday I had a maximum of 32.2C. Last night it dropped to 18.4C but by the time I got up this morning (5:30AM) it was back up to 21.3C so felt okay. (Less than 2 weeks to the shortest day.)

Apart from the titanums all the others have gone dormant except for this little one (photo below) which has only just started growing. It's in the symonianus container but I suspect it's a paeoniifolius. They've got into just about everything and they come up any time they like. Most of them though stick to the summer growth routine. My symonianus have always been strictly summer growers, so I'll soon see if there's any renegades amongst them. Paeoniifolius can't disguise themselves as symonianus and get away with it.

Dave, I'm away from home more than I'm at home - the price for being able to pay a mortgage.
